heres mine hun! not sure how low it is tho, it was lower but i struggled wiv the speedbumps at work! ive still got the inner wheel liner in in this pic. it rubbed a bit so cut a few bits of the liner out! if you remove it completly you can go loads lower but all depends on what your areas like for speedbumps!

[Alan]

Makavelli, whats yours down on mate?




P.s.....i was looking at getting a black 172.....but seeing your racing blue 182 has changed my mind on that colour....minter mate!

 

[makavelli]

i got loony's gaz coilovers put on by fred, they will go as low as you want as well! so im tempted to go lower soon. imo they are quality for the price seeing as the bilstein and leda's are far to much for my pocket to stretch to!

 

[Adam]

^^ thought u wasnt moddin urs

lol....but who can resist them......wont be for a while yet tho maybe march or sommet.

Nice one :approve: Fred called me the other day about some new coilovers Gaz are bringing out for the 182 so I think seeing your car looking that good has made my mind up for me

How much are your average set of coilovers??

Im gettin some in january i think, if there not fully adjustable, does that mean u cant adjust the height of it at the back??

[CHRIS172CUP]

Love the after pic Makaleli, looks the nuts mate. Oh and yours of course Gary

 

[Maz]

Any more pictures peeps ???

 

[fizzy_drink]

Lowered 30mmfront 25mm rear on Eibach Sportlines.

No rubbing at all. No trouble with speed bumps.

 

[Gary G]

Your average set of coilovers cost between £400-£500 (GAZ/FK etc), KW's are a bit more i think and then there's LEDA and Bilstein which cost over a grand.

Fully adjustable is a fairly loose term....what you want to look out for is compression and rebound damper adjustment, most are rebound only.

Height adjustability for the rear is usually offered by an abutment kit as there isnt a rear coilover available for the clio.

Hope that helps.

PS. Cheers Chris...liking yours also! see you at a trackday soon hopefully

 

[CHRIS172CUP]

Have you actually measured the drop Omar? Doubt very much that's 35mm lower at the front! Eibach's figures aren't true. The pros raised my cup!

I want your wheels, nice.

Gary, I hope so I'm getting withdrawals.

 

[fizzy_drink]

^^

Yes it was measured.

My car's lower than a cupped 182 - it's official!

The pic was taken from a low angle, hence it doesn't really look that low.

I can re-measure if you like? Need an empty cupped 182 to measure against.

(remember the sportlines are lower than the pros)

 

[CHRIS172CUP]

They're not a 172 cup, must be different platforms. Just doesn't look that much, that's all.

No need to measure mate, it's cold outside.

 

[Maz]

Any more pics people ???

 

[MarkM]

mine on ledas.

Not sure on the drop as I did not measure it. I think it is a bit lower now as they have settled a bit.

Ah yes.. forgot to day: The 172Cups are lighter, and therefore don't lower as much.
